Blame it to the human curiosity or the everlasting desire to live, each one of us is always concerned about our longevity, age or in simple words, how long will we live.

This unique watch from the time machine giant sticks to your body like a patch and keeps ticking, every moment reminding you of the time left with you on this planet.

Move inside the technicalities and what comes to fore as a detailed process that uses the biometric information (including factors like health, fitness, stress, nutrition, sleep and the amount of sleep and stress that you are exposed to ) that the watch takes from your body to convert it into figures. These figures are then used by the Index Watch to make a well calculated assumption about the time left with you.

Sync Desktop: Integrated PC with Flip-up screen sync_desktop_integrated_pc

It won’t be an exaggeration if I tag this particular piece of technology as the most lavish convertible that I have ever come across. In this one you can convert a desk into a fully functional PC and a fully functional PC into an equally utilitarian desk whenever the need demands.

We are talking about the Sync concept from Art Deco, designed by Gareth Battensby. It features a huge flip-up LCD screen and an illuminated keyboard, striking enough to catch even a kid’s attention. Whenevr you need a desk and not a PC, just shut down the screen and there you have a clean desk waiting to be used.

This unique PC table with fold-away screen has something more to it. In a way it s a complete computer solution as it homes USB hub for peripherals, scanner, webcam, mouse, and storage space for CDs and stationary. Apart from that, the DVD and power unit is easily accessible, taking away the hassles of bending and stretching to locate them.
Talk about the aesthetics and you’ll find a modern and clean design which has got every feature and form to be touted as the best PC desks till date. Highly practical and easy to use, this concept has everything to hit the market with a boom.

BacVac Concept by Continuum

BacVac Concept

I really cherish the advent of evolving concepts that vouches for its possible functionality. Readers, customers, retailers enjoy going through such stuff that makes them familiar with the futuristic patterns thereby governing the hi-tech style era. And the latest in the news is a cool-tool vacuum maker called “the BakVac” from Continuum

It helps you do away with your old exercise of dragging moving parts that helps you clean dust by positioning them at your back like a turtle. Quite sensible! This thought of adding an inch extra of comfort level can be factored by its electric motor powered by a fuel cell, keeping those pesky electrical cables from tripping you up.

BacVac Concept

It may take some time to be functional enough as its dependence upon fuel cell technology is not cheap enough in juxtaposition to other wild designs available today.

Not to mention, it is a convincing concept. All you need to do is to pour a little ethanol into the BakVac that transforms liquid into hydrogen thorough the wonders of chemistry, firing up a fuel cell. Huhhh, it doesn’t require any battery.
